Static compression is used all too often and many times is inaccurate in an of itself. I.e. I bought 10.5:1 pistons so I have a 10.5:1 engine. not necessarily. Even the factory ratings aren't always 100% right.

Now add the camshaft. Now you get into cranking compression. Most Na guys run bigger overlap and tighter centerline angles on their cams. This is the exact opposite of a forced induction grind.

Last you need to look at the head materials and the head design. Aluminum will allow more compression and chamber design plays into it as well. Being it's a slant, you obviously have iron heads.


So before I made a call to whomever you are going to buy your SC from, I'd know my cam specs, my true static compression and my cranking compression.
